Great news. Getting rid of the lame 2 weapon rule, but not breaking the game by giving the weapon wheel. It'd still be nice as a cheat code, but Gearbox is already giving the game 10x more support than most people thought they would. Also, Miracle of Sound lied. Duke's getting rid of the lame 2 weapon rule, but people are still cruel because he isn't doing it the way THEY want him to.

Sorry, Gearbox, but you're too late. I never bothered with multiplayer, and I'm not gonna play through the campaign again just to see if the game got any better with 4 guns.
Gearbox didn't make DNF though, so...yeah. At least they are trying to fix what 3D Realms and Triptych Games did so, so badly.

I'm happy about this, but I've heard too many other bad things for me to even consider buying this one.

A 4 weapon limit is starting to get on the right track, now all they need to do is just remove the weapon limit altogether and they'll be golden.

I did get distracted from the single player campaign, only did a bit of it before going back to TF2 and LoL... but I guess I can give it another go when this patch comes out, should make the game pretty easy though...

Well, at least that's something to look forward to when the game is eventually $5 on Steam and I pick it up.

I'll say what I said in the other post about this.

Four weapons is still not enough. Add a selection wheel that lets us hold all weapons then we'll talk.

Really I can't see how hard this is for them: Instead of pressing Y to switch weapon how about holding Y that brings up a selection wheel that has say, 12 slots? Then while holding Y scroll around using the analog stick to the weapon you want and release Y to select said weapon. Honestly, how hard can that be?

That would break the balance in all of the levels on your knee with a sickening crack is the problem. It could be a cheat code, sure, but the fact of the matter is that the levels in the game were not made with a weapon wheel in mind. The 4 weapon system is what Gearbox found that made you feel less limited while still not making the game pathetically easy.

I'm going to just throw this out and guess you never played the originals?

Yes. Yes I did, but the original Duke Nukem's allowed you to carry all the weapons in the game, not to make the game easy but because it was a fun, arcade shooter, the game isn't to be taken seriously. Which is my point, I'm not suggesting the selection wheel because I want to be made easy but because I want it to have the same arcade, over the top feel the originals had.
